Yes I agree that 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder', but being constantly stared at by people, often making crude remarks does get wearing, and it worries me that my daughter could later be affected because she is very pretty and her looks already attracts boy's attentions. She has a different way of coping, I'm pleased to see. She simply ignores them as if they aren't there. Only if they stand in her way will she react, and then she'll strike as swift as a snake. Rude boys beware!

I was sexually harrassed at the hospital I previously worked and complained to HR. They did nothing about it, but would only follow up if I lodged an official complaint. The man who constantly got at me was a senior consultant cardiologist, but after I gave him a serious warning to stay away did he realise I wasn't someone to be messed with. A fortnight later he saw my reaction when leary patient in A&E pinched my *****. Reacting as taught, I dropped him to the floor. Security was called who threw him out.

Thankfully I'm not harrassed in any way at the medical practice where I work now. My colleagues are very nice. I hope it remains that way.
